Kaiser Wilhelm II and Kaiserin Augusta Viktoria
38-400 FOUR
POSTCARD SET OF - HAUS
DOORN - NETHERLANDS.
After
WW I's end, when Kaiser Wilhelm II abdicated Germany’s throne, he
entered exile in the Netherlands. Haus (Huis in Dutch) Doorn was purchased for him at a
price of approximately 500,000 Dutch Guilders. He remained at Doorn
until the end of his life in 1941. He is buried on the estate’s grounds.
Haus Doorn consists of a three-story main building and a few smaller
outbuildings. Today, the late emperor’s casket rests in Haus Doorn’s
mausoleum. If you peer through its small windows, faintly you can see it. Some
of Wilhelm’s pet dachshunds are buried in the garden off the main house.
Kaiserin August Victoria died in 1921 at Haus Doorn. Wilhelm married
his second wife, Hermine, in 1922. (Hermine survived Wilhelm, left Haus
Doorn after his death, and returned to Germany). [Both of Wilhelm’s wives are buried back in
Germany].
When Kaiser Wilhelm II departed from Germany, he took a train of some
twenty-odd boxcars filled with his personal possessions. More than two-hundred
different uniforms were included, along with their matching headdresses,
most of his numerous tableware settings, and other personal possessions. Haus Doorn is regularly open to the public, with marvelous guided tours.
It has a small gift shop where one can purchase small remembrances of one's
visit. During a recent visit, I purchased a small number of their postcards. We are offering them as a group of four cards. Below are
descriptions of the four cards encompassing the set:
1) On the second floor is a large circular display case where four
uniform groupings are displayed at any one time. On this photograph's left, his parade
uniform from the Regiment des Garde du Corps is on display. You will
note the officer’s dress tunic, known as a kollar. Over that
is a black küraß. The küraß was used only in the Spring
Parade. This style of küraß was originally given to the regiment by
the Czar of Russia during the Napoleonic Wars, as thank you to his German allies.
(Note the Black Eagle on the küraß, worn both as a sash and as a
breast star). To the photo's right is the Kaiser's uniform from the Leib-Garde-Husaren-Regiment.
(Please note the red parade attila).
Over its shoulder is his blue pelisse, trimmed in shearling wool. In front
of the grouping is a Generalfeldmarschall’s baton, and behind is
the third grouping. If my memory serves me correctly, this is his Kaiserliche Marine
grouping, in which he held the rank of Großadmiral.
You can see the top of his schirmütze and is his großadmiral's baton. Many other
uniform accouterments are
also displayed. Two other display cases built into the walls show schirmützen and shoulder boards. This is my favorite part of the
residence. You never know what groups of uniforms you will see.
2) This is a closet at Haus Doorn, where many of the Kaiser’s
uniforms are stored. Below the tunics you will note many of the matching, correct
boots. A pair of parade shoulder boards, a belt and other
accouterments also are present. At the closet's top are
many storage boxes for pickelhauben, schmirmützen, busbies, etc. If you are
anything like me, your tongue is hanging out right now!
3) Kaiser Wilhelm was a true militarist. While his army was important to
him, his navy absolutely was the apple of his eye. Nothing gave him greater
pleasure than to visit his fleet, sail on his royal yacht, the S. M. Y.
Hohenzollern, or sail on his racing sloops. In this photograph, the
S. M. Y. Hohenzollern is either arriving or departing from the port at
Kiel. The vessel projected not only Germany’s power as it sailed abroad, but
the Kaiser and his family’s majesty. The vessel carried many of his castles’
luxuries for him when he sailed.
4) As Kaiser, Wilhelm II was the head of the German Army and Navy. As the
Kaiserliche Marine's commander, Wilhelm was a Großadmiral. Here
he wears the uniform of his rank. He wears an officer’s summer (white cover)
schirmütze, and a navy frock coat. The bullion stripes on his coat
sleeve consist of one wide band, with four narrow bands above it. These
indicate a Großadmiral. (One stripe is a Konteradmiral, two indicate a Vizeadmiral, and three stand for an Admiral).
This is a high-caliber postcard grouping, certainly a museum grade. We are
pleased to offer these FOUR fine cards to you on a limited basis. (Please do
not ask us to separate the sets -- they ONLY will be sold as sets).

38-1690 DELUXE COLOR POSTCARD - PERIOD - 1881-1906 (SILVER ANNIVERSARY -
KAISER AND KAISERIN). This is an absolutely
spectacular color postcard which depicts Kaiser Wilhelm II and his wife,
Kaiserin Auguste Viktoria, from their wedding in 1881 through their silver
wedding anniversary in 1906. The Kaiser is wearing the Garde du Corps’
uniform and Hohenzollern Eagle-topped helmet. Below the royal couple’s
images is a crowned Hohenzollern Eagle. Below that is, I believe, the castle
in Berlin, Charlottenburg. In the castle’s center is a small window. A wheel
protrudes from the postcard’s sides which, when turned, showcases each of
the royal family’s children. This includes the six princes and one princess
that were born to them. Two of the princes were shown with their wives, whom
they had married by 1906. Each of the children is depicted at their ages in
1906. While you may not be able to see it from the attached photos, several
of the areas are beautifully embossed. The silver portions are quite
handsome. We have never seen this postcard before. It is spectacular!

WILHELM. This postcard shows three generations of Imperial Germany’s

until his death in 1951. Prinz Wilhelm (1906-1940, Wilhelm II’s grandson,
also appears in the photograph. He renounced his claim to the German throne
in 1933 to marry a commoner. He died in combat seven years later (1940) with
the German Army in France. The postcard is marked as Nr 2081 from
Gustav Liersch’s well-known firm. The postcard’s reverse is stamped "Zum
50. Geburstage unseres Kaisers" (The 50th Birthday of our Kaiser),

a carriage. If you look behind the Kaiser, you will see his only daughter,
Viktoria Luise, in a 2. Leib-Husaren-Regiment Nr 2 uniform. The postcard
was mailed from Berlin in 1913 to an address in Russia! The German cancellation
stamp was applied in a heavy-handed manner. Its impression can be seen through

38-2131 POSTCARD - KAISER WILHELM II. This

issued in 1913, celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of his rise to
Germany’s throne. He is in a generalfeldmarschall’s uniform. He holds that
rank’s massive baton in his right
hand. While one sees hundreds of Kaiser Wilhelm II postcards, those showing
him with a generalfeldmarschall or großadmiral’s baton are relatively
scarce. Both batons are on display at Haus Doorn, where the Kaiser
lived in exile until his 1941 death. The postcard has a message on its

Otto von Bismarck
38-946 POSTCARD - OTTO von BISMARCK.
Otto von Bismarck (1813-1898) is one of German history’s leading political
figures. He became Germany’s first Chancellor in 1871, after Prussia’s King
Wilhelm I was crowned Germany’s first Kaiser. Bismarck was greatly involved in
Germany’s unification, as She worked her way through the unification wars of
1864 and 1866, and the 1870-1871 Franco-Prussian War, which was the final
step. He was a master of foreign policy. He was also at the forefront of
social welfare changes made in Germany. He was retired from his post in 1890
by Kaiser Wilhelm II. This followed Wilhelm’s 1888 assumption of the throne,
after the deaths of his grandfather, Wilhelm I, and his father, Friedrich III.
Wilhelm II and von Bismarck had monumental differences regarding the future
role of Germany’s foreign policy. A key difference was Wilhelm II’s desire to
expand Germany’s overseas colonies. Bismarck felt strongly that this would
bring Germany into conflict with other European powers, especially Great
Britain. The last five years of von Bismarck’s life were relatively quiet.
This pose shows him in retirement at some point after 1890.
